Why choose a full roof replacement?
A complete replacement can be the most sensible option when a roof has widespread tile failure, recurring leaks, failing underlay, rotten battens or repeated repair costs. Rather than treating one weak area at a time, a new roof renews the complete weatherproofing system.
CROWN CRAFT ROOFING AND GUTTERING LTD assesses the roof covering, underlay, battens, ventilation, leadwork and visible timber condition so the proposed work reflects the actual needs of the property.
Roofing materials and finishes
We can discuss suitable roof coverings based on the pitch, property style, surrounding roofs, exposure and budget. The aim is to create a roof that performs well and looks appropriate for the building.
- Natural slate for a traditional, durable finish
- Fibre-cement slate for a consistent modern appearance
- Concrete tiles in a range of profiles and colours
- Clay tiles for character properties and traditional rooflines
- Matching ridge, hip and verge components
- Modern breathable membranes beneath the finished covering
Benefits of a professionally installed new roof
- Long-term protection from rain, wind and changing weather
- Reduced risk of recurring leaks and emergency repair costs
- Improved appearance and stronger kerb appeal
- Opportunity to improve insulation and roof ventilation
- Better protection for roof timbers, ceilings and internal finishes
- A complete system designed to work together rather than patched sections
Our installation process

Signs you may need a new roof
- Frequent leaks appearing in different areas

- Failed underfelt visible from the roof space
- Widespread nail fatigue or loose slates
- Damaged ridges, verges and extensive mortar failure
- Sagging sections or concerns about the roof deck and battens
- Ongoing repair bills without a lasting improvement
Ventilation and insulation
A roof must do more than keep rain out. Appropriate ventilation helps manage moisture in the roof space, while suitable insulation can improve comfort and reduce heat loss. These details are considered when the existing roof is opened and the replacement specification is prepared.

New roof questions
Answers to common questions customers ask before replacing a pitched roof.
Can my roof be repaired instead?
Sometimes it can. A repair may be suitable where the defect is localised and the rest of the roof remains sound. Full replacement is generally considered where deterioration is widespread or repairs are becoming repetitive.
Do you replace the underlay and battens?
A full re-roof normally includes removal of the old covering so the underlay, battens and visible supporting areas can be assessed and renewed as specified.
Can I change from tiles to slate?
Possible options depend on roof pitch, structural loading, appearance and the selected product. These points must be considered before a covering is specified.
What happens around chimneys and valleys?
These vulnerable junctions are detailed as part of the roof system using suitable leadwork, flashings, soakers, valleys or other specified components.
Will a new roof improve insulation?
A re-roof can provide an opportunity to review insulation and ventilation. The suitable approach depends on the existing roof construction and access.
How long will the work take?
Timescales vary with roof size, complexity, access, weather and the amount of underlying repair required. The expected programme should be discussed before work begins.
